Chapter 288 One advance and one retreat

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Three days later, the fifty heavy crossbow bolts that had been urgently produced were finally transported to the front line. This time, Luo Ji obviously made up his mind to break through the gate of Shangyuan City, so he directly took the five arrows that he brought this time.  All the three bow bed crossbows were pushed out!

    No nonsense, Luo Ji waved his hand, and five three-bow bed crossbows fired at the same time. The first round of salvo directly locked on the bed crossbow placed on the city wall by the opponent.

    A series of violent roars hit Li Kuo's heart directly, making his heart jump. Faced with this range suppression, the bed crossbow on the wall of their Shangyuan City was completely reduced to a decoration, and they had no power to resist at all. The powerful and violent attack  Ruthlessly destroyed the bed crossbows on their walls and hit the morale of the soldiers defending the city.

    Three rounds of fire were fired, and after destroying all the bed crossbows on the opposite wall, Luo Ji signaled the army to advance 100 meters, and turned the attack target to the gate of Shangyuan City.

    After shortening the distance, the hit rate and power of the three-bow bed crossbow have been significantly improved. Just one round of attack caused obvious damage to the gate of Shangyuan City. Luo Ji was thinking about the opponent's next move.  When he was wondering how to go, he held up the binoculars and found that the guards on the opposite wall were evacuating quickly.

    Originally, he thought that the other party was planning to go out of the city to meet him. However, there was no movement from the closed gate of Shangyuan City for a long time. Luo Ji, who sensed the strange situation, flashed thoughtfully in his eyes, and then motioned for the three bows and crossbows.  He stopped attacking, and after a while, he raised his hand, and directly dispatched a small ladder troop to approach it quickly, climbed up the wall of Shangyuan City to confirm the situation, and finally found that the guarding troop in the city was actually a saboteur.  The agency at the East City Gate has been withdrawn

    "Damn! These bastards actually abandoned the city and fled? What a man!"

    Luo Yong, Guo Zhen, and Liu Meng who heard the news were all depressed, and the most depressed one was probably Liu Meng. Luo Yong and Guo Zhen had already made meritorious service, and he had just been on the front line.  , before he even had a chance to do meritorious service, the enemy ran away by himself

    And unlike the three people who were full of depression, Luo Ji obviously thought more about it. Shangyuan City was an important line of defense in the eastern border of the Great Zhou.  Retreat without fighting?  This move and their posture of defending the city a few days ago are simply two extremes.

    Quickly sorting out the thoughts in his head, Luo Ji pondered for a while, and then asked Zhou Yi who knew the situation in Da Zhou best, "Zhou Yi, what do you think?"

    As a wise general, Zhou Yi obviously noticed the unusual behavior of Li Kuo at this time, so he had been thinking about this matter in his mind just now, "Without Zhou Dongnan's order, according to Li Kuo's character, absolutely  I dare not just abandon the city and escape, but this time he withdrew so simply, it is likely that he got Zhou Dongnan's hint."

    Hearing this conclusion, Luo Ji rubbed his chin, and then asked again, "Behind Shangyuan City is the Royal City 'Great Zhou', right?"

    "Yes." Zhou Yi nodded.

    "Do you think it is possible for Zhou Dongnan to abandon the Great Zhou Royal City and then retreat?"

    "My subordinates think it's impossible. If we move westward, there will only be two small cities with weak defenses. In comparison, the Great Zhou King City is the most populous and largest city in the entire Great Zhou. If  Even if Da Zhou gave up, there would be no chance of a comeback after Zhou Dong Nan."

    Hearing this, Luo Ji's eyes flashed with a flash of understanding. According to Zhou Yi, if Zhou Dongnan wants to turn against the wind, he must not give up the Great Zhou Royal City. Once he gives up, there will be no people and no resources.  What capital does he have to talk about this comeback?

    In this way, it is easy to guess the meaning of the opponent's move. Obviously, he wants to preserve his troops, and then fight him to the death outside the Great Zhou King City.

    Along with this thought flashed in my mind, the two teams who climbed to Shangyuan City by virtue of the ladder also spent a lot of effort, and finally opened the east gate.

    After the army entered the city, Luo Ji found that Shangyuan City was extremely lively, and at a glance, he saw a fire burning in the distance.

    Considering the situation, Luo Ji decisively mobilized his troops to help the people in the city put out the fire. It was later confirmed that the two burned buildings in the city were the granary and the armory, and other surrounding buildings were also affected to a certain extent.  Fortunately, the fire was controlled in time and no further damage was caused.

    Luo Ji basically had no idea about Zhou Dongnan's method. From Zhou Dongnan's and Li Kuo's point of view, this method may have successfully prevented the food, grass and ordnance that could not be taken away from falling into the enemy's hands.  For Luo Ji, who had no shortage of food, grass and armaments, there was basically no influence.

      On the contrary, the people of Shangyuan City were panicked and complained a lot after being burned by the fire. Coupled with the forced recruitment of soldiers before, one can imagine how strong the people's resentment in Shangyuan City is at this moment.

    The other party's cooperation gave Luo Ji an excellent opportunity to buy people's hearts. He decisively ordered people to send porridge and food, and then let Zhou Yi and the others help to appease the people in the city.  Why not?

    Facts have proved that Luo Ji's move was successful, and he directly shouted in the crowd, "Is there anyone who can repair the city gate mechanism?"  ¡¯ Immediately, several people stood up and expressed their willingness to help them repair the city gates. Luo Ji even asked a few people about the situation of the cities in Dazhou during this period.  With an attitude of knowing everything and saying everything, there is no doubt that the loyalty of these people to Da Zhou and Zhou Dongnan has dropped below 60 points.

    At this time, Luo Ji was thinking in his heart, after this all-out war, should he simply transfer all the population of these cities to his own territory?  , with the loyalty blessing of his 'ruler' talent, it is estimated that he can easily reach more than 75 points, just enough to add a large wave of manpower to his civilization.

    Of course, this is just an idea for the time being. Whether he wants to do this or not, he has to think about it again. With such a large population, it is not just acceptable. You have to see if there are so many people on your territory.  Jobs and living areas, not to mention that the all-out war in front of us is not over yet.

    In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Luo Ji did not stay in Shangyuan City for long. After resting overnight, he left a hundred troops in the city as support, and then the army slowly left the city, rushing towards the decisive battle of this all-out war!
